I had severe problems to get a mount of the ReadyNAS automatic usershare to my laptop. Everthing I was trying failed and serveral people had the same problem. The NAS had domain-authentication activated.

The error was error 13 = Permission denied

nfs: Stale File Handle with LVM partitions

recently I was having a problem with NFS. I wanted to export a quite large NFS-Volume (20TB) and when I tried to mount it on the client there was always the error

nfs: Stale File Handle

I couldn’t find the error and read some articles which indicated perhaps a corrupted underlying filesystem. Fearing the worst i wanted to do a fsck, but as the server currently is under heavy use this was no option. Luckily i found the next article which explains, that with LVM-Volumes one has to set a “fsid” Option or the export/mount could fail.
